  • YOU ARE SO STRONG. You let all those negative feelings out. Let yourself grieve, it's okay to be not be okay for a little while. I feel like too many people feel the need to be composed all the time. It's okay to scream, cry, curse, laugh, grieve, memorialize. Love be with you, my dear.
  • PS, there are alot of beach body coaches here looking to solicit (i know I used to be one) Be wary of people who want you to privately message them to give you more info. It means they're trying to cull you as a customer. You can ALWAYS get beachbody items cheaper on other websites.
  • I love Turbo Fire. You can't find the workout per se on youtube, but can find videos of people doing turbofire if that makes sense. I got my set used on EBAY for 65 bucks. Be careful with EBay though, because some people sell fake copies. I found a seller that had the whole set, including the advanced DVDs, the nutrition…
  • I love HIITs. Not only have I noticed a change in my body since I started incorporating them, but my cardio endurance is better. Be sure not to do HIIT everyday. 2-3xs a week max, with some strength training will really help tone. But be aware of nutrition. I am noticeably more hungry on HIIT days and have to incorporate…
  • I don't think you're a troll. I agree with you. Wedding's are an exercise in narcissism. I say that and I'm married. No, I didn't have a wedding, and because we saved that expense, we were able to buy a home 2 years into our marriage.
  • A cute mutt Rottweiler/German Shepherd mix. He's a three year old, 70 lb lap dog!
  • You're hungry because you are eating processed non-nutrient dense foods. Try something with more fruits, veggies and PROTEIN. Protein keeps you sated. Example: Breakfast 2 egg whites made into an omlette with 1/2 cup chopped spinach, tomato, mushroom pieces) 8 small/medium strawberries with 1/2 cup plain fat free yogourt.…
  • ^ I do this too. Before I go to bed I have to double check that the front door is locked, the fridge is closed all the way and all the pilots are off on the stove. I just give everything a good tap. If I forget, no matter how comfy I am in bed, I can't get to sleep and have to get up to do it Also, when I eat, I don't like…
  • Today's my day 3, so I hear you. My glutes and shoulders hurt more than anything today! Are you HURT or are you INJURED? If you suffered injury, then rest. If you have aches and pains and soreness, PUSH. That's the point of the program.
  • Counterproductive, but isn't it precious? :)
  • I do it once in a while, but he tries to grope me during squats and straddle me during burpees. But it's fun when he does that. Actually, my dog "bothers" me more than my spouse. My dog knows the cues on the DVDs I use already and likes to stretch with me. One of the joys of working out at home is having a 70 lb dog going…
  • When you said "normal people" in modest dress, I immediately thought of the Biggest Loser workouts
  • Lying about your weight on dating sites-not relevant Lying about age-give or take 1 or 2 years-not too relevant Lying about having KIDS- red flag If he's lying about having kids, how do you know there's no wife with said kids. This is a MAJOR lie to start off with. So no, I wouldn't continue to chat with this person.
  • Like has been said before, lower your carb intake a bit. If you can walk, you can exercise! Maybe even while watching some of your elderly clients. Leslie Sansone walk off the pounds is a great start, it is low impact, walking workouts. Get some resistance bands for some light strength training if your injury allows. And…
  • Worked great at appetite suppression for me. But I have pre-existing GI issues and it made me unbearably nauseous. Start with the lowest dose especially if you're caffeine sensitive. If you are military or an athlete, oxyelite original formula contains 1 3 dimethylamylamine, which is now a banned substance in military,…
  • If you're doing your first plyo cardio circuit today, the best advice I can give you is PACE yourself through the warm-up. I guarantee once you get through the warmup you will be thinking to yourself, "That was JUST the warmup!!" LOL you'll see what I mean. Good luck all. Dig Deep!!
  • I've done one round before and I HATE the fit test. I'm going to replace that with fast and furious bonus workout and a quick strength circuit after. Looking forward to finishing this time!
  • I'm starting again today. My first time around I stopped w two weeks left due to injury. I've been slacking off on my fitness goals lately and would love to go through the program with others. I hate doing the fit test though, so today I'll be doing fast and furious (bonus workout) instead. Don't be afraid, we can do it…
  • I'm cooking the very fatty, but very delicious dinner my husband requested: chicken parm, penna alla vodka, some Moscato wine and red velvet brownies. No regrets because tomorrow is a better day!
  • The guy could be going through something major and he doesn't know how to reach out. So many guys tend to just internalize when they're going through something. As women, we tend to overthink things like this. I agree with the poster who said just don't contact him for a while, cultivate your own interests and don't crowd…
  • It sells three different packages with workouts ranging from absolute beginner to crazy advanced yoga. The beginner set is the cheapest and even has a foundations dvd called the Diamond Dozen which solely focuses on proper form. I highly recommend it.
  • I second DDP Yoga. Very good dvd series!
  • Zuzka has a great youtube channel w free full length high intensity workouts. I tried one, and even though I nearly finished insanity, I couldn't get through 15 minutes with this chick! I'm working on it each day.
  • bump for later. Thanks!
  • Try: BEFIT (they have full length Jiliian Michaels videos and their own 90 day programs on youtube) Zuzkalight-she does short high intensity interval cardio--very hard and very good workouts she has over 50 free workouts posted~
  • ZUMBA! It didn't even occur to me that it is my last workout of 2012......
  • I LOVE insanity, but it wasn't love at first sight!! I have stopped and re-started the program several times this year due to fatigue, frustration and injury. If you are just starting with insanity, here are some tips I learned the hard way: 1-NOT OPTIONAL: Get a heart rate monitor. I noticed once I got a heart rate…
  • I deleted my facebook earlier this year because I became tired of constant negativity being posted by my friends. It was a rude awakening as many of my "friends" admitted that they hadn't even noticed that I'd deleted my profile. Needless to say, my circle of actual friends is now smaller and more fulfilling. Best thing…
  • Hey there, room for one more? 5'1, 162, need to lose over 30 lbs more before I enter a realm of comfort, the 130s. I also need to renew my motivation. Thanks!
  • ^ THIS. This song, I just have no words for the rage I feel when it comes on....
